Growing Community Through Communication - HoYu Tommi Boulter
The root of both the words community and communication come from the Latin munus, which means the gift, and cum, which means together, among each other. Literally, to give among each other. As we come together to practice, we grow community; Zazen is the seed for Sangha. And more Zazen nourishes self and community. Naturally, from this inward growth, we reach outward through communication. Thus the birth of Living Zen. In the first issue members have shared thoughts on books, feelings on sesshin and ideas through story. Living Zen lives because of you. All contributions, words, images and ideas gratefully appreciated. Please send to TommiWrites@shaw.ca
